Ric Grenell to Newsmax: Idea VP Harris Is Ready to Lead 'Is a Joke'
Newsmax ^ | 6 | Eric Mack

Posted on 06/01/2021 8:59:26 AM PDT by Signalman

The criticism Vice President Kamala Harris faced for her "enjoy the long weekend" tweet is new to her, because she has been covered by California liberalism that fawns all over her every move, no matter how inappropriate, according to former acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell on Newsmax.

"What we're seeing now is Kamala Harris really stumble on the national stage," Grenell told Monday's "Cortes & Pellegrino." "Whether it's her inability to go down and communicate on the border why she's in charge or what the problems are, or articulate why she's not going to physically be there.

"Or now what we see is her stumbles where she's not quite able to articulate patriotism the way the others are."

Grenell, a California conservative, said liberals from his state just skate by on favorable media coverage that leave them "untested" and unprepared for scrutiny.

"The idea that she's prepared to lead the country is a joke," Grenell told co-hosts Steve Cortes and Jenn Pellegrino. "She's never been put through the rigor. She's really unaccustomed to tough questions.

"You'll notice she's not meeting the press. She's not going out, because she's just really used to having the comfortable Sacramento or California press cover her, which means she gets glowing reviews for anything she does.

"Now that's she's in Washington, she still has the progressive D.C. reporter-type glow all around her, but she's now having to face conservative media, or real journalism, and she's unaccustomed to that."

California's "one-party system" is the root of the former senator's ineptitude, according to Grenell.

"We have a one-[party] system here in California," he said. "Kamala Harris has not been put forward in any way to the media to be scrutinized. She's not unique in that. It's most Democrats in California because it's a one-party system.

I keep wondering if Harris has realized she doesn’t actually want Joe’s seat after all.

“She still SUCKS at her “job”.”

Of course, that’s how she got there.

And no one cares, she WILL be president.

Doesn’t matter. Obama was just a figurehead. She will be as well.

We are one slip-and-fall away from putting her incompetence and corruption to the test.

LBJ realized that he didn’t want JFK’s seat after all either. He declined running again in 1968.

That's because he knew the unpopularity of the Vietnam War gave him little chance of being re-elected.

It is a good thing (for her, not the US) she won’t have to.
The same people using Biden for a sock puppet will pull her strings as well.

Why do so many conservatives call atrocities by democrats a “joke”? I never hear Democrats referring to anything they think is negative about Republicans a joke. There are so many more appropriate words to use that are a lot stronger.

Beat me to it.
I was just about to post the same quote.

Based on what I hear/read, she seems to have a lot of experience in that department

“Whether it’s her inability to go down and communicate“
I don’t think she has a problem doing the former.

Unless there is serious Divine Intervention, I fear that you are correct. I see no help coming from any of our so-called “Good Guys”.
